This is my 4th, it was not planned and I am 41 with a 13, 10 and 6 year old. I had just got all kids in school and was finally focusing on me when I found out I was pregnant. I'm happy to have another daughter on the way, don't get me wrong. I do feelVery blessed. I however also feel really tired, huge, and very uncomfortable. I am so ready to be done and so scared at the same time. I'm worried about my oldest who was not happy about this pregnancy and for my other kids whose time with me with suffer at the sake of another baby. So I'm anxious , nervous and feel like I'm losing myself again. Anyone relate? I have noOne really that is in the same boat as me and I just feel bad and don't know how to be "normal"

Can't relate at all, I would totally do this like twenty more times. Wish I could be pregnant forever. JUST KIDDING!!!! I am very ready to be done. Heartburn, constipation, fatigue, fatty mcfat, massive 12 pound boobs......oh the list goes on with all the things I'm ready to be done with. Only a little over 8 weeks left. Yay

@jmb1234 Same Dd is almost 18 and graduating this year. And my other dd is 9. Lol I seem to have a thing about a big age gap. But I'm not so young any more and I feel like my hips r broke. Every movement is painful and I'm so huge this time around ppl either don't believe I still have a ways to go or they ask if I'm having twins! I'm over it. So happy for my little girl but ready for this part to be over!

@jmb1234 This pregnancy has bed harder on me than my first and our DS is a super-active 2-year-old. I am two and through. DH wants a third. I don't have it in me to do this again. I hate myself with these hormones and I feel like I go crazy every time. It's not exactly the same as your situation, but I just want to be done, too!

@SoleilCH SolieilCH, i'm in the same boat as you. Are you getting "fixed"? I'm not sure what to do for birth control, but I REALLY can't do this again and cannot afford a third baby! I keep hearing about people getting preggo on mirena, I need something that won't get me preggo!

This is my first and I already feel the same the only reason I will be going through this again is cuz we want a boy. If the next isn't a boy one of will be getting snipped...and I say not me considering I carried them. Fiancé did agree to being the one to get it done when we got to that point. Poor guy even offered now so I wouldn't have to worry about birth control for the next few years until we decide to have another. But I couldn't have him going back and forth like that. I've also heard bad things about mirena and other iud's though.
